Lock 2

Lock 2

Lock 2 is unusual because its eastern wall is constructed of granite similar to Lock 1 in the British style, and the western wall has a wooden surface following the American style of lock construction, as seen in both walls of Lock 3. The channel leading up to Lock 2 is human-made and runs from Lake Micmac to Lake Charles. Known as the Deep Cut, this was a huge engineering project and took over three years to complete.
